Cable entry grommet round black Bachmann 5073739 for cable routing and panel feed-through

Round cable entry grommet by Bachmann in black finish, designed to provide a neat and protected pass-through for power, data and audio/video cables. The grommet is intended for use where a circular cable opening is required in desks, furniture, control panels or enclosures. It helps to reduce abrasion at the cut edge of the panel and creates an organized routing point for multiple cables while maintaining a low-profile appearance.

Advantages

The grommet protects cable jackets from sharp panel edges and prevents fraying or damage from repeated movement. Its round design accommodates several cables through a single opening and provides a clean, professional look to workstations and installations. The black finish offers visual integration with dark furniture and equipment panels while resisting visible dirt and stains. Installation is simple and suitable for retrofitting existing cut-outs as well as new builds.

Suitable for

• Desk and office furniture cable management
• Control panels and instrument enclosures
• AV racks and home entertainment furniture
• Workbenches and industrial cabinets

Key specifications

• Shape: round
• Color: black
• Application: cable entry / panel feed-through
• Compatible cable types: power, data (Ethernet), audio/video, and similar insulated cables
• Installation: snap-in/fit for circular cut-out (requires matching hole size)
• Function: protects cable insulation from panel edge abrasion and organizes cable routing

How to use

Prepare the panel or furniture surface by cutting a circular hole of the appropriate diameter for the grommet. Deburr the edge of the hole to remove sharp metal or wood fragments. Insert the grommet into the opening until it fits securely; ensure the flange sits flush with the panel surface. Route cables through the grommet, arranging them to avoid excessive bending or pressure at the feed-through point. For retrofits, verify the existing hole size and, if needed, enlarge it carefully to achieve a proper snap-in fit.

Usage recommendations

Match the panel cut-out diameter to the grommet specification before installation and avoid forcing oversized cable bundles through the opening to prevent long-term stress on cable jackets. Periodically inspect the feed-through for wear and replace the grommet if the edge protection becomes compromised.
